A slice of vintage bridal inspiration.

Wedding Cakes by Sylvia Coward, published in 1994, offers a charming glimpse into classic cake design, complete with step-by-step instructions and full-colour photographs. Originally published in the 1980s–1990s, it reflects the era’s romantic aesthetic—think heart-shaped tiers, sugar flowers, and pastel piping perfection. Whether you’re a baker, collector, or nostalgia lover, this book doubles as both a practical guide and a visual time capsule of retro wedding style.

Please note the first page has had as dogear cut from the top right corner of the page (no information is lost); some pen markings have been made on one recipe page (shown in images).

A sweet reminder that love (and icing) never goes out of fashion.
